1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The advent of organoid technology has enabled scientists and clinicians to utilize cells from primary tissues or pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) to grow self-organizing tissue systems, thus attaining cellular diversity, spatial organization, and functionality as found within digestive tracts. The development of human gastrointestinal (GI) and hepato-biliary-pancreatic organoids as an in-a-dish model present novel opportunities to study humanistic mechanisms of organogenesis, regeneration and pathogenesis. Herein, we review the recent portfolios of primary tissue-derived and PSC-derived organoids in the digestive systems. We also discuss the promise and challenges in disease modeling and drug development applications for digestive disorders.
